NuLu Festival

The NuLu neighborhood presents the 5th annual NuLu Fest, featuring “all things local” and innovative additions. The free, family-friendly and open-to-the-public block party will take place on Saturday, September 28, 2013, from 12 p.m.–11 p.m. on East Market Street.

This year’s festival promises to be bigger and better than ever. New this year, NuLu Fest has expanded to two blocks, with the all-day event spanning the 700 and 800 blocks of East Market Street. Also new this year, the event will host the 1st annual Louisville Maker Faire as part of the day’s activities, which includes more than 60 local makers and inventors showcasing their unique ideas and wares.

In addition, NuLu Fest 5 will feature more than 70 independent vendors and several food vendors from local fan-favorite restaurants. Other improvements include a revamped beer garden in The Green Building parking lot, with a curated craft beer selection by Louisville Beer Store, NuLu-exclusive bourbon cocktails by Four Roses, and wine by the glass provided by Old 502 Winery.

For the fifth year in a row year, NuLu Festival has been named the “Official After-Party” for Louisville’s Idea Festival, a gathering of innovators and thinkers from around the world who discuss and celebrate imagination, new perspectives and transformational ideas. Idea Festival participants will be encouraged to attend the NuLu Festival to enjoy living, working examples of cutting-edge innovators in the Louisville community.
